I hate trail horses. They poop in the trail while I go way off in the
woods, they muck up the trails (Cataloochee esp) and they have no
since of lightweight techniques. I know they are only horses, but
it's just unnecissary to carry that 240lb man and 60 lbs of gear for a
horse to survive in the woods, and those metal horse shoes are
definatley not weight efficient, although some weight is saved and
breathability gained my nailing them to your feet istead of having
straps or uppers to keep the shoes on. They can't even use hammocks,
poor things. This is definatley a post more for backpacking light
than hammock camping. Poor horses need to see the light.
